How do I get up when the old man drags me down?
How do I shake off this dust from my feet
when nobody welcomes me around.
How do I move on?

My heart is troubled and I'm afraid.
I've little strength to hold adversity at bay.
Temptations in my shadow
gaining on me.
Show me the way of escape,
Mighty One, deliver me.

And in deliverance bringing
I'll break forth into singing
song and praise
all the days
of my life!

Rain has come in torrents and violent winds are bursting forth,.
I'm sinking in distractions and lies.
My own emotions pull me under
yet, I can hear a distant thunder;
a voice,
a Savior
reaching toward my cries!

And in deliverance bringing
I'll break forth into singing
song and praise
all the days
of my life!

I've loved Your law, have found Your grace
and Your mercy lifted me.
Now my peace is like a river and righteousness the sea.
The dust is gone and I'll move on
I'm clean
delivered
free...
to sing and praise
all the days of my life!

If you died today, are you absolutely certain that you would go to heaven? You can be! TRUST JESUS NOW
